Yes runway may not be Barbara's "thing," and she could be mainly a print model for VS, but many are forgetting that walking the VSFS gives models that extra boost of public recognition. How many models have you personally "discovered" via the VSFS? The fact that she could be on the screen for millions of people is HUGE. More public recognition can lead to more connections and interest in the model, leading to more jobs.

 

Barbara had her foot in the door. Honestly she could have easily been cast if she looked the part and put in a little effort maybe a few weeks prior to the show to work out and tone up. It's very clear from many swimwear candids that she was not ready for this show. There is also the factor that perhaps VS was not impressed with her lack of HF work recently too.

 

Is it the end of her career that she isn't walking? No. Was it a wasted opportunity considering she had it in the bag to be cast? Yes.

I have some conspiracy theories about this shit that went down with the casting I wasn't gonna post, but what the hell...there is enough room for one more crazy person in this thread, so here it is. I think she looks the same as last year (that is her brand: healthy, curvy, soft), and she was used so much then because of the Bieber-stuff (not that they dated or something just their managemant was friendly with each other), and I have a hunch that this year T-Swift will perform and she and her management doesn't want her, or something with Brett (Shanina is missing too). But we'll never know.

This is everything that I had wanted to say--thanks for putting it so eloquently. I mean the VSFS is probably the majority of the reason we even know who she is and are discussing her now in the first place--it's hard to deny that it would have helped her career, regardless of how you feel about the show itself or Victoria's Secret as a company. 

 

But I am beating a dead horse here and we should probably move on from discussing this, so I'll say I look forward to seeing where she goes, and hopefully she will be doing good work in the next few months!

Making of Mavi Jeans TV ad with Barbara Palvin, Kıvanç Tatlıtuğ and directed by Cemal Alpan.....

at least China!

Thanks for the updates  she's so flawless on this video!! and.. omg THIS BIBLE THO APPLE LOL i'm gonna read

Thread Edited

 

Model/celeb threads are not a haven for long, drawn out soap boxes. Well, I suppose if you want to write a sonnet on said model's beauty, grace, awesomeness ect., that would be fine. Thank you .

Anyway.. someone know what she's doing at Shanghai?

 

I don't see how all this blame can be put on VS, sure they may deserve some of it, but some of it also belongs to Barbara. Not only that, but many here have said she has a "horrible" walk.

 

Horrible walk? I see her "walk" in last years show and it was very sexy. Maybe the sexiest in her part.

 

 

So between that and Barbara not working very hard to get more toned, how can there be such surprise that she didn't make it in the show?

 

This is not the olimpic games or a female body builders world cup.

 

 I also don't agree with this idea that she would have been the only real looking woman in the show. I probably know more girls that have bodies like the rest of the models, and they don't starve themselves to look that way, they just eat healthy and work out regularly.

 

Maybe this is one of the harmful effects of the fashion industry. It beliving to the girls that thoose bodytypes are the ideal. Like when porn industry did the same with wake boobs and full shaving.

 

 

BTW I don't think it's a big loss for her. The role in Hercules might worth way more in her carrier then a second time in this show.

 

 

Well.. guess that i'm not the only person who think's barbara is really sexy walking, i love it too.. If she had one ugly walk, they wouldn't call her, much less STOMP on the catwalk

Many people think she went to Shanghaï for L'Oréal..

Even my mom found she was one of the sexiest girl in the show

 

Well we all know that she's not gonna be on the show so can we pass on because talking about that doesn't change anything.

 

And for Shangai I think this is for L'Oreal, she seems to have a real impact in Asia

it's an article from yesterday, all wrong  

makes me feel so fuck1n angry to watched that video of Barbara shining in tha last year vs show.... and know that she will not be in this year.

Ok guys.. this is important, maybe she's wrong, but THAT'S REALLY WEIRD IF SHE IS WRONG. I'm talking about this:

An girl show me this on twitter.. and well.. barbara is on the "angel's tweets", so she's gonna be a angel or?

makes me feel so fuck1n angry to watched that video of Barbara shining in tha last year vs show.... and know that she will not be in this year.

i'm sorry i don't want this reaction

 

what do you mean by she's gonna be an angel ?

dont armesour.. i think is better to watch that.. cause she is just perfect for the show .

Because she will not walk this year, but maybe that means it will soon become an angel. Idk, this girl on my twitter is saying that she will be, very soon.. and them post this image, i just want to share with you guys, know what you think about it
